Common questions
How do I know if ducts need cleaning?
Visible debris, remodel dust, pest history, musty starts, and dirty returns are reasons to inspect. A little dust on a grille does not always mean the whole system is dirty.
Is duct cleaning licensed in Texas?
General duct cleaning is not a state-licensed trade. HVAC repair is licensed by TDLR, and regulated mold work needs separate TDLR mold credentials.
Can duct cleaning remove mold?
Do not treat suspected mold as basic duct cleaning. If mold is suspected, a licensed mold assessor or qualified HVAC contractor may need to evaluate the source first.
Why does my dryer take two cycles?
A clogged dryer vent is common. Lint buildup, crushed flex, a long roof run, or a blocked exterior flap can slow airflow and create a fire risk.
Will cleaning ducts fix allergies?
It may help if debris is the issue, but allergies can also come from filters, humidity, pets, carpet, leaks, or outdoor pollen. Duct cleaning is one piece, not a cure-all.
Can you clean flex duct?
Yes, carefully. Flex duct can tear if aggressive tools are used. The tech should inspect duct condition before brushing.
Should ducts be cleaned after construction?
Often, yes, especially if returns were open during drywall, sanding, or demo. Filters should also be replaced, and the air handler checked.
